[CRAZY-POLL] Gingerbread Release DAY :D - Desire General

The update seems still confirmed for the Q2 (April, May, June)
So now we are on june..Why don't bet on the release DAY?

UMAD!1!1

last weekend of june is my guess - 26th
if I remember the Froyo it was on a sunday that it started flooding out, and that's probably the last point of Q2 that they have left.

FroYo for the Desire came out in August last year as I was in the US when it was released so I wouldn't be surprised if we don't see 2.3 until then

when did Froyo come out for nexus one though in comparison?

Google says June 2010 but can't find an exact date. Baring in mind the Nexus One/Desire were flagship devices back then it was obvious they'd get the update first. This time the delay might be longer so I reckon Q3 2011

Desire got 2.2 same time as EVO 4G. Evo just got 2.3 -> Desire 10th...

Unbranded Desires will, most likely, get the update before the end of June. Branded Desires won't probably get the update until 2-3 months later. For the 2.2 update, while most phones got the update by August 2010, my Telstra phone didn't get it until November 2010.

Hi guys !
Only one question for now :
My Desire has been rooted and last clockwork recovery installed but when gingerbread ota update will be received, will my phone accept the update even if it is rooted ?
Can't it be "bricked" after that ?
Thanx a lot for sharing your knowledge !

thumb up for pool heh I say somewhere around 30.6

Don't install any ota when rooted as a general rule

I think HTC released Gingerbread in Q3. It is june and HTC can not hear anything from him

Why lot of people are voting for 30 june? Do you mean htc will not release it for this month or that they will wait the last day of the Q2 as they promised?

The new android 2.2 will apparently launch on 19. may, will the desire also get this update or is it unsupported? also, post any news here
It'll get it, it's just a question of when.

agreed, htc will take a LIFETIME to release this for sense
in fact from my experience what will happen is that before next month another 3 phones will be released and they will no longer support the desire
although i have heard of google fragmentation which if true could mean that adjustments do not need to be made for sense and android 2.2 could simply be installed to our desires?

I hope it wont take as long as the hero update, wich was announced to release december 2009, now its may and its still not here, and ITS THE 2.1!
I had a hero before, but i couldnt wait for the update so i bought a desire

23rd June FroYo release now far more likely

http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/0...on-june-23rd-is-froyo-also-joining-the-party/
Google, Motorola, Verizon and Adobe are releasing the next generation of the droid on June 23rd with FroYo.
Couple this with the fact that a customer service rep said HTC are releasing FroYo on the 23rd of June it's seeming more and more likely that we will be seeing FroYo on the 23rd of June.

I don't follow your logic. This is the release of a new handset from Motorola, it's not a milestone in Froyo releases and certainly doesn't dictate (at least in the short term) what HTC will or will not do.
There are pretty decent froyo roms out there
No need to wait!

Plus I would rather have a full working phone with FroYo after waiting for HTC than a custom rom with bits working here and there and having to press F5 on the roms thread every minute of the day in hope that something else has been fixed. Don't get me wrong, I am used to it with the HD2 and eventually, custom roms can be pretty awesome, I just feel that time is not right now with the desire.. I'm holding out on HTC for now

Notice that Google and Adobe are announcing the next generation of the Moto Droid with FroYo.
Now what we can understand from this is that...
Motorola are releasing the successor to the Droid with FroYo
Adobe are releasing Flash 10.1 Final
Google are more than likely going to start proper OTA updates on the Nexus One
All of these are going to occur on the 23rd of June. Doesn't it seem a bit of an odd coincedence that a few weeks back we heard unconfirmed reports from HTC customer service that a FroYo release was to come on the 23rd of June?
It seems far too perfectly in sync to be a coincedence. Google are trying to stop device fragmentation right? Doesn't having its biggest hardware makers Motorola and HTC releasing FroYo on their devices along with Flash 10.1 being released on the same day sound like a start to defragmentation?
However, HTC is not mention once in the whole story, I would like to see it, but I think Honduras have a better chance of winning the world cup
Lets hope that we havr froyo on the 23rd!

There is some logic in this indeed.
It would be cool: a global Froyo launch over multiple devices. Better then slowly updating each device over a 6-12 month period.
The Android Army is marching in on the 23rd! One day before the iPhone 4 is released. Sounds typical Google.
I think there is straw clutching too.
HTC have nothing confirmed, for all we know the announcement by Motorolla is that the new Droid handsets will run Froyo and thats all. And a release date for handsets.

So they can rub it in to all the iphone 4 owners about how great flash will be maybe?
I think its probable a froyo phone or update will be out on the 23rd, but im not remotely convinced it will be on an HTC device then. If it is, great!, If not then meh.. i'll wait a bit longer.

And has nothing in history ever changed? There is a first time for everything, including HTC bringing an update fast. If you are looking at the Hero: that was a totally different situation IMO. Froyo is much needed for the Desire while eclair for the Hero was not so big. Flash wants to be on as much possible devies as fast as possible. Google wants a big Froyo launch, which will have a much bigger impact than slow, unnoticed Froyo updates.
I am not sure of anything, bit I do think that the '23rd rumor' is possible. We will see.

The Hero was their first Android device with Sense UI. The Desire is not and they have already seen what happens when they delay an update too long.

HTC Desire Froyo coming in August

Just seen this so fingers crossed.
http://www.techtechies.com/20100707...announced-htc-desire-getting-froyo-first.html
would be a good birthday present
Am I missing something? the HTC PR guy excerpt is from an older interview I read before. He said "before xmas" in the full interview. No mention of august, and again this unsubstantiated news clip gives no evidence of when HTC said "august". please reference HTC "august" comment if your going to post this stuff.
Taken from link.
According to the news the lucky ones would be the HTC Desire holders, as the Android 2.2 (Froyo) going to rool out for HTC Desire in August
Al so noted here.

thanks. I hope it comes true. I decided to wait for the official update instead of going with a ROM off here.
Same here. Haven't yet rooted as it looks like most of the stuff I'm after (and was on my old HD2 - wireless hotspot and app2sd) is coming with Froyo. I was a seasoned WM flasher (it can be so addictive!) but thought I would try and control myself this time around ;-) The sooner 2.2 arrives the better.

Haven't rooted yet too, no rush.
I really hope so, but seriously...October sounds more like it...HTC was never fast and known as a delay vendor. I would say late September, early October.

HTC has not annouced any official date yet and i dont know where these two web sites are getting it from. This read is so similar to the x amount of previous threads all saying its coming 'next' month etc.
The post date of the article is July 7th. We need less speculation and just wait patiently.
Q3 like has always been stated, that's July-September.... so my guess is some time between now and the end of September probably later rather than sooner.. (that has not stopped me from clicking on System software updates > CHECK NOW!' every day )

one long topic going on about froyo on desire in two weeks time. lol

[Q] When are we gonna start seeing...

custom kernels with SBC for the gingerbread build? Just asking cause I really miss my SBC and Full HDMI out.
EDIT: nevermind I found out that we havent gotten any code released yet!
Yeah, ask HTC when they're going to support the Android open Source Policy and start releasing source codes....
EVO 4G kernel source for GB has not been released yet...
http://developer.htc.com/
*edit* woops, I'm slow...
isnt their 30 days up soon?
I wonder who enforces that policy anyway
I know, I'm lazy for not looking, but didn't the OTA come out on 6/4?? That would mean 30 days has been up

Looks like the official release was the 6th so it should be released today d'oh!!!
Then again, they had to fix that update with the 4.24 update which was June 20th.

the 4.24 was more of a bug fix...not a huge overhaul like the GB OTA (4.22) was (locked bootloader, updated OS, new kernel, etc.)
if HTC is counting 30 days from 6/20 I'll be pissed!!!

Vodafone UK OTA Android 4.0.4 & Sense 4.1 now available!

The Voda forum has a post which indicates that the latest update for Android 4.0.4 & Sense 4.1 is 'expected by November 17th'. I have no idea whether this is accurate, but with 02 releasing theirs last week, that sounds extraordinary. I was expecting it this week...

I hope it does roll out to the UK soon as i want Sense 4.1 on my phone!
Unless im being thick.. I have been running this update for a few weeks, and I am on Vodafone
Got it OTA a couple weeks ago roughly
Just checked my phone and it definately says sense 4.1
